Type 3 Object Markers | OM3-L - OM3-L
Type 3 object markers provide critical roadway safety by alerting drivers to potential obstructions and hazards. Constructed from durable .080 aluminum with standard 3/8" mounting holes and radius corners, these markers meet both DOT and MUTCD state and federal guidelines for high visibility. Designed for marking obstructions adjacent to roadways, these high-intensity and diamond grade reflective markers ensure clear visibility during day and night conditions. When installed at guardrail approach ends, the markers feature alternating black and retroreflective yellow stripes sloping at a 45-degree angle, directing traffic safely around potential obstacles. The markers are strategically positioned so that the edge closest to the road user aligns precisely with the nearest edge of the obstruction.
